Hello all. I recently bought SC2, but I haven't played it online yet. Just playing through story mode on Hard mode that's all. But I haven't been fairing out to well. I'm not so much interested in the campaign mode so much, but I want to get good at the player vs player. Any tips on how you would go about getting good at the game? I know practice makes perfect, but practicing the wrong way might hinder my progress. I used to play the first SC against some local friends but that was about it. I like the way the game looks and plays, but I ain't good at it yet. Tips? Leagues? anything?

Teamliquid website has some good stuff. It's usually the following:
- Keep making workers
- Don't get blocked
- Keep scouting
- Keep making an army
- Expand at the right time(depends on situation, supply, etc....)
- Work on counters(comes later on)
- Get a solid opening down and work on some timings, like 9 pylon, 12 gateway, 13 extractor, etc....
- Join the overclock.net channel and visit the SC2 thread for some advice
